Eclipse Ganymede

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

Next version of eclipse IDE will be called “Ganymede”. The name is the third moon of Jupiter. The release date is scheduled on June 30 2008. Some features for M1:

  • Profiles with shared plugins : You can create multiple profiles, but all bundles are downloaded once.
  • 64-bit for Windows
  • Regular Expressions support in find/replace.
  • Replacing text now uses the same dialog as refactoring (preview, undo)
  • Ignore Resources (good for .svn or for target directory ;) )
  • Correct spelling in CVS so I guess SVN plugin do the same.
  • Drag text into Expressions, yea this is really cool feature
  • Extract Class from groups of fields.
  • Move block of code by drag and drop in Outline View.
  • Watchpoint for field access & modification

I’ll be waiting for next version ;)

about me

My name is Sebastian Pietrowski. I've finished Warsaw University as Master degree. I started my journey with Java 1.1 with Thread and JDBC programing in 1998 as I worked for merlin.pl. In 1999 I've passed Java Programer Certificate for Java 1.2, and was solution architect of merlin.pl infrastructure when we was moving from pl/sql to J2EE. It was great performance optimization with 10 times more req/sec than in requirements and 85 times faster as original solution.

Currently I work as Expert Software Development Java at F.Hoffmann-La Roche. The company was founded in 1896 and today, Roche employs over 80.000 people. After work I'm involved in activities related to Scala/Lift, Ruby/Rails/Merb, Python/Django. This is because I try to be pragmatic also I'm focused on application performance and tuning with success in my daily work.

My Yoda's motto: Do, or do not. There is no try.
